Scarlett, real name Yue Jiang, is the main protagonist of I'm the Grim Reaper and one of Satan's three grim reapers. Before her death, she belonged to Red Spades, from which she made a deal with Satan to escape, although she was later sentenced to the 9th level of hell. Scarlett must kill one sinner every day to save herself from eternal punishment.
Appearance[]
Scarlett has apricot skin, unevenly cut black hair, a red underside, and bright red eyes. Initially, her hair was bobbed and short, but she grew it to knee length while in the 9th circle. She appears to have been impaled by her wood chipper, according to Satan.
Her torso is dotted with small scars that may be related to her occupation during her lifetime. One of her most noticeable features is her small X-shaped scar on the left corner of her lip.
Her costume was designed by Satan and the primary colors are red and black. It consists of a white long-sleeved shirt with a large red X in the center, but the Sinner's mark on her costume appears to be only part of the shirt. Additionally, she wears a cloak with arrow-like patterns on her sides. Scarlett also wears a red scarf and black combat boots.
Scarlet, as the Grim Reaper, has her two small horns that look like tufts of hair and a long, black tail with a spade-shaped tip.
Her pupils are slitted like a cat's or reptile's. As she begins to use her Shinigami powers, the horns on her head grow larger as the demon within her takes control.
When Scarlet's demon takes over, her head becomes a large, red, shapeless mass that looks like a pair of jaws. Her hands are also large and pointed like a devil. Her tail becomes long and thick. All of these new attributes are black with a red outline. Scribbled red eyes indicate demonic features.
Personality[]
Scarlett is secretive, except to those she trusts. She is sincere, but her emotions come out easily. Whether it's due to her memory loss or her personality, she often seems dual purposeless and naive. Throughout her activities as a Grim Reaper, she has chosen her own emotions over her logical decisions, contrary to the thoughts of Red Spades's former leader. She had a gloomy view of the world and its inhabitants. Not only is she driven by frustration and fear of her sentence in hell, but also her attachment to Chase, which often gets her into fights. After she spent time with him, she took on a more vulnerable and warm side.
She has past ties to a criminal organization called Red Spades. Later on, she was actually buying organs from Red Spades because she was slowing down the progression of the Scarlet Rot disease that she had infected herself with, infecting the world's population, and developing a cure for it. She overcame her disease and made billions selling the cure, but in the process she incurred a huge debt to the organization.
